Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 529.
Given that
The marked price of a basket, a wallet and a belt is ₹80, ₹150 and ₹350, respectively
Selling price = Marked price × (100 - discount%)/100
After a discount of 5% on a basket, the price paid for a basket = 80 × (100 - 5)/100 = ₹76
After a discount of 8% on a wallet, the price paid for a wallet = 150 × (100 - 8)/100 = ₹138
After a discount of 10% on a belt, the price paid for a belt = 350 × (100 - 10)/100 = ₹315
Hence, the total amout she paid is = 76 + 138 + 315 = ₹529
